A carrier battlegroup is an intimidating site and park it outside Assads front door and it will intimidate him. Asking Congress now to authorise a limited strike now over a week after he use of the chemical weapons and Obama unable to get a coalition or UN resolution seems abit lame. Obama should instead ask Congress to give him the ok to take action if Assad uses chemical weapons again. In one hand a go ahead from Congress saying future use of WMDS will defauntoy bring attack. In the other hand he has a carrier battlegroup within striking distance of Syria, Obama can look presidential. Congressional elections are next year and the majority of the public are against action it's possible Obama won't get his authorisation from Congress, if he does but only by a small majority it will be bad for his image. Permission to attack in future if needed is much easier for congressmen seeking reelection to support.

Let me tell you sweetheart what happens. Obama will be shot dead from the nearest library window and you will switch commenting next football match with vigor unseen since 1960th. The trouble, there is nothing for America to die for in Syria. It's just a local suicide mission of a cheap maniac.
